  • Malhar Bhagat, LIVE!
    FAR 152 Expected Air Date: 05/14/18 Opening Guest EMCEE Mike Smith “Live from Atlanta, Georgia, it’s Flipping America!” Hey everybody, how’s it going? We are happy to be back with a live group for Flipping Atlanta, the local meetup chapter for Flipping America. We have a great show lined up for you today. As you know we try to bring you the most up-to-date news and information, demographics and trends, methods and investment ideas to help you make the best possible decision in your real estate investments. We don’t encourage everyone to drop what you’re doing and start flipping houses like you see on TV, but we do encourage everyone to have real estate as a part of a balanced investment portfolio. Part of what we do here at Flipping America is feature top investors from around the country, talk about what they are doing, learn from their approaches, their lessons, be entertained by their stories, and benefit from their experience. Tonight we have one of my good friends Malhar Bhagat. Malhar has been running a successful real estate company for over 10 years and has completed over 200 deals in that time. Living in NY, investing locally and out of state, Malhar has integrated various systems learned over the years to develop properties in multiple US markets. Success in real estate has allowed him to accomplish many life goals, both professionally and personally. He has learned that as in life, real estate presents daily challenges; how one moves through them is what the game’s all about: mindset. Following his business and passion, Malhar and his wife/partner moved to Atlanta to continue to rapidly expand their operation, M2REST. Currently, Malhar and his team simultaneously run multiple renovations and new construction projects. He’s going to join us right after the first break.

    Guest: Malhar Bhagat Motivational Thoughts for the day
    • If your ship doesn’t come in, swim out to meet it. Jonathan Winters
    Comment Line calls and Questions Call 404-369-1018, press 1 and leave your message! Emails: [email protected] Tell us where you’re from!
    • Francine, Waukesha, WI, “How can you tell the condition of a roof while standing on the ground? Can you give me any other guidance about pricing out a roof?”
    • Patty, Buffalo, NY, “Thanks for the show. We don’t get you on the radio here, but love the podcast on iHeart. Question: Would you start with fixing and flipping or rentals? Oh, and how do you know where the people are from when they send in emails?”
    • Marcus, Colorado Springs, CO “I have questions about the AirBnB strategy. I didn’t really know there was a strategy. Can you talk about this?”
    • Allen, Lancaster, PA, “I’m brand new, just found your youtube channel and website and then saw you are on the air here in Lancaster. So cool! I’m really new, but fired up. What should I do to get started?”
    • Corey, San Bernadino, CA “I’m having a hard time getting started. The properties I want to buy are all 400-500k and although the numbers look fine, the costs of the hard money loans are enormous. One lender told me I would need to bring 78 thousand to closing. How do I overcome this? I have about $50k available for this.
    • Alex, Jacksonville, FL. “I hear all the talk about no money down deals. Is that a real thing or just a come on for some program or course. Can I really buy a house with no money down and none of my own money?”

  • Your Home is a Stage, with Krisztina Bell
    FAR 150 Expected Air Date: 05/07/18 Opening Good morning everyone. If you've ever watched one of the house flipping shows on TV you notice that when they finish the rehab work they will move in some furniture and decor items in order to stage the home. This practice is a relatively recent development in the industry and if your only source of information about this is TV, you might assume it's an industry standard. I have the privilege of being connected with hundreds of actual home investors and for them it's a different story. I have not conducted a study of my own network yet, but I can tell you without hesitation that most of the investors I know do not stage their homes this way. There's no question that with some well-placed furniture and decor, the house you want to sell will look much more like a home someone wants to live in. But is it truly worth what it costs? We are going to look into that today and in a few moments I'm bringing in one of the industry leaders in home staging to discuss the topic with us.

  • The Market Report, John Durham
    FAR 150 Expected Air Date: 05/07/18 Opening Good morning everyone. As you know I'm a firm believer in the necessity of real estate agents. They provide great value not only in getting our properties sold, but also correct pricing and quite often they are able to provide direction with regard to style and remodeling decisions. A good realtor knows not only the market conditions in the territory you've chosen but also knows the subtle differences from street to street that only someone with extensive local knowledge can give you. Can you do this business without a Realtor? Probably, but why would you want to? There are inherent risks in this business and your realtor play a huge role in mitigating that risk. A good realtor will make sure you know your ARV before you buy, will help you set the right price when you are ready to sell, and will take care of the marketing strategy that will get your house sold. I was fortunate early in my career to meet a realtor who has the right stuff. John Durham showed me a strategy for pricing and selling a house. He introduced me to the technologies that were state of the art at the time and over the past 12 years or so of our friendship has stayed on top of all the newest truly useful developments. I've gotten John involved in fixing and flipping and he's probably done a couple hundred or more houses of his own. John is now an operating partner with Keller Williams and he and his team sell several hundred houses every year here in the metro Atlanta market. John will be joining us after the break and we are going to talk about the market, where it's been, where it's going, and what investors should be working on right now.

  • Tax Liens with Chantelle Owens
    FAR 149 Expected Air Date: 05/05/18 Opening Last time we talked about the mortgage foreclosure process in Georgia. We are following up today with a conversation about the Tax Lien process here in Georgia. Our guest is Chantelle Owens, lead instructor at the Georgia Tax Lien Bootcamp. Chantelle has been investing in real estate since 1999 and has been a full-time real estate investor since 2001. She began her real estate investing career as a credit investor which eventually escalated into No Money Down Deals, Wholesale Deals, Fix & Flip and Buy & Holds as a landlord. In 2008, after going through a second real estate market crash, Chantelle found her passion with Tax Lien Investing and has made this her primary niche. After 10 years of investing in GA Tax Liens, Chantelle is an expert Tax Lien Acquisitions and the go-to person for this type of information in GA. She currently invests in Tax Liens full-time and is also a Real Estate Mentor & Coach and teaches workshops through various Real Estate Investing Associations (REIAs) and the GA Tax Lien Bootcamp. Our next Three Day training camp is coming up May 9-11 and it's not too late for you to join us. However, since our program is invitation-only, you have to jump through a couple of hoops in order to receive that invitation. Hey it's not like getting into law school or anything but we just need to talk. You can schedule a call with me by going to your web browser and typing this in exactly: bit.ly/TalktoRoger When you do that you'll have access to my scheduler and you can pick a time. Then you will be given instructions for accessing a conference call you'll need to dial into at the appointed time. It doesn't matter to me where you are. I look forward to helping you in any way that I can.

    FAR 148 Expected Air Date: 05/03/18 Opening This week was the foreclosure auction here in Georgia which means we were busy analyzing properties right up to the last minute before 10 am Tuesday when the auctions began at every courthouse across the state. We get quite a few questions about how to buy foreclosed properties so that will be one of our topics later on. We appreciate all the questions you are sending - some of them are very good questions. If you have questions about anything real estate related, send them to [email protected]. We answer every question that comes in. And some of them get answered on the air, as you will hear in a few minutes. Our next Three Day training camp is coming up May 9-11 and it's not too late for you to join us.

    • Matthew, Blue Ridge, GA "I don't see how you could buy a house that you've never been inside. How do you come up with a repair budget. You don't know what you're getting in there - I don't see how anyone ever takes this risk. Since you have in the past, can you shed some insight?"

  • News and Questions
    FAR 148 Expected Air Date: 05/03/18 Opening This week was the foreclosure auction here in Georgia which means we were busy analyzing properties right up to the last minute before 10 am Tuesday when the auctions began at every courthouse across the state. We get quite a few questions about how to buy foreclosed properties so that will be one of our topics later on. We appreciate all the questions you are sending - some of them are very good questions. If you have questions about anything real estate related, send them to [email protected]. We answer every question that comes in. And some of them get answered on the air, as you will hear in a few minutes. Our next Three Day training camp is coming up May 9-11 and it’s not too late for you to join us. However, since our program is invitation-only, you have to jump through a couple of hoops in order to receive that invitation. Hey it’s not like getting into law school or anything but we just need to talk. You can schedule a call with me by going to your web browser and typing this in exactly: bit.ly/TalktoRoger When you do that you’ll have access to my scheduler and you can pick a time. Then you will be given instructions for accessing a conference call you’ll need to dial into at the appointed time. It doesn’t matter to me where you are. I look forward to helping you in any way that I can.

FAR 147 Expected Air Date: 04/30/18 Opening Hello everyone and welcome to another week of Flipping America. This is the show that teaches you how to make money in Real Estate. We bring you news, information, trends, markets, styles, We also like to talk to people who are getting it done in this business and in a few minutes I'm bringing back Don DeRosa. Don is a local Atlanta investor and mentor. He has a workshop on just about any topic you need when it comes to fixing and flipping houses.

He's going to share with us how he turned his own home into a smart home and what he does in all his renovations to add another WOW factor.
